Matchmaking change back to -2/+2.

[acrisis]

Welcome to the forum. 

 

Your point of feedback is what exactly?  

 

Because you only made a statement of a factual change. Without expressing whether you agree with it, nor find either 1MM or 2MM better.

Please do not change matchmaking back where it was before. If it wasn't for bad luck, I'd have no luck at all. In the old days, no matter which tank I chose from my inventory, I was always at the bottom of the team list. You know, the lone tier V up against tier VII, all gold shots bouncing and destruction inevitable. Before update 2.7 comes out, I'm still unlucky enough, I'm still at the bottom of the team list but I have a bit more of a chance up against only the next tier higher. So please do not change matchmaking format on the NA server. It is perfect the way it is. +/-1 tier. Sorry first time in forum.

I apologize. What information do you need?

[acrisis]

I completely agree that it gets to be quite frustrating to be -1 and -2 on the roster, 75% of the time in any given tank in tiers 5 through 8. 

At the start of the +1-1MM (1MM) "experiment", Wargaming indicated clearly that it would be temporary in order to gather various kinds of performance data and player feedback; before an official determination will be made on whether two stick with the old +2-2MM (2MM) 

 

So, right now. The 1MM trial ended. Back to the old default 2MM. 

 

Chances are, based on user engagement and user feedback, which seems to have overwhelmingly accepted 1MM as a good thing, that 1MM will return in a few updates from now.  

 

We don't know though, how Wargaming will slice and dice the various metrics and the bottom line ($).

 

So whether 1MM comes back or 2MM is here to stay forever .... who knows?  

 

And yes, in the grand scheme of things, being -1 is a lot more tolerable and less stressful for most players than being -2.

Thanks for the information As a player that spends a few dollars a month on my favorite game, I will probably find a another game to spend my money on and wait and see if it changes back.

I hear you. The thing is, the better one plays, the more difference one makes in game. For over a year, all there was, was 2MM and people learn and adapt, play a bit different as low tier or high tier. Dish out as much damage as you can etc. 

 

You're struggling mid tiers upwards. You only have a super tricky tier vii premium (E25) and now the IS3D. So you have a very poor basis to run in VII VIII and IX games. 

 

Catch up on some guides and tutorials. You will perform better and have more fun.

I'm on the other side of the fence, I am looking forward to the old mm.

It's not impossible mid tiers or even being low tier. There is a certain skill set you need to be successful in those games. The fact that you noticed is actually a step forward in improving. Watch some vids search some guides and apply it in game.

can't wait to kill tier 8s with my 10 and shine up my M10
